Egypt extends its curfew as the anti-government protesters in Cairo surround important buildings including the foreign ministry. The governing party NDP's HQ has been burned.
President Hosni Mubarak has ordered the army onto the streets and is yet to make a statement.
BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner said: "Every minute that goes by without the president making that address to the nation makes him look weaker and will convince people he is losing his grip."
Protesters clashed with police after the Friday prayers and the curfew has been put in place but that is not stopping the multitudes that remain on the streets. The protesters are breaking the curfew and targeting the broadcasting building.
Phones and Internet services have been disrupted but proxies are been used by the protesters.
